New Wave bands (if you're American) still going AFAIK: Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, The Cure, and The Police.

Bands part of the New Wave revival:
Franz Ferdinand - Take me out

Kaiser Chiefs - Everything Is Average Nowadays

MUTE MATH - Chaos

The Epoxies: Synthesized

the sounds painted by numbers

Now I think I need to go to the bathroom to puke.

Uh, duuuuh. Thanks for your contribution ... I think.

How can you assume "everyone" has heard of the Killers and thereby knows who they are, what they look like, and most importantly -- know their sound. And why did I have to name the band? Aren't you simply splitting hairs about having to hit a link? The reason I linked it was so others could not only immediately see and hear their stuff, but also so they could follow up and contribute links of their own, and most here did just that.

Rogers: Why would you want to go out and puke? Got something against music known to have verse, chorus, and "hook", not to mention catchy melodies with discernable lyrics which one can actually hum? Got many Guns and Roses tunes you can do that to?

Oh, I guess the Killers are more well known in Australia.

Speaking of the Killers, it's weird how they changed their sound on the second album.

Because music with electronic beeps and boops reminds me too much of Kraftwerk.

I'm not a fan of Guns and Roses, Realgirls4me, but because you asked:
Guns.N.Roses-Sweet Child O'Mine

Guns N Roses Paradise City

Guns N' Roses--Don't Cry

Guns N' Roses - Patience

I'll also throw in "November Rain", largely because of the stunning Stephanie:
Guns N' Roses - November Rain
